Preface Science needs language, not only for communication among people, but we all need language for thinking, for constructing models, for forming our ideas. Clear-cut terms that are accepted and understood by the scientific community are the basis of scientific language. The goal of this “Electrochemical Dictionary” is to provide a reference manual where the reader of electrochemical literature can quickly find short explanations of scientific terms. Fundamental definitions are very important, especially the recommendations of IUPAC, which were a primary source, where available. In many cases intensive discussion among the editors and expert authors resulted in the definitions that can be found in this book. It is our hope that the definitions of terms proposed herein will be accepted and used in the future by the scientific community. This dictionary includes not only the most frequently used terms, but also some that may be obsolete and even those whose use is discouraged. We intend the dictionary to be encyclopedic in coverage of terms, but relatively brief and clear in the individual entries. The goal to be encyclopedic in covering “all” terms is impossible to fulfill, partly because science is quickly developing with new terms arising almost daily,
